Saw Hunger Games & The Thing on the weekend, ( it was that kinda weekend). I enjoyed both. The Thing (1982) is probably my favourite horror/sci fi, whatever genre it is, film. It's had good reviews so I was keen to see. I think they did a good job fitting it all together. My only 'I wonder' with it is why they missed the opportunity to make a back story for the alien. Maybe it should stay a mystery though, I'm all for mysterious. The CG/animatronics were astounding & I'm glad actual Norwegians were cast.
